About Jill Shurling

Roy and Jill Shurling along with their four poodles and kitty decided to give up the big city life in Atlanta, GA in 2015. They had always dreamed of retiring in Florida and then they decided why wait, do it now. They purchased a lot on Navarre Beach and built their dream home. Roy works for a French company traveling internationally and loves coming home to the relaxed lifestyle of Navarre Beach, Jill works locally as a hairdresser and yoga instructor. After settling into the easier pace on Navarre Beach they decided to look for another property in Navarre. They purchased this condo in December 2016 and they now look forward to sharing this slice of paradise with you.

Why Jill Shurling chose Navarre

Navarre Beach is so unique from it's spacious, pristine white powder beaches and emerald green waters to it's relaxed vibe. It truly is The Best Kept Secret! So untouched, you can't wait to touch it! But the jewel-toned horizon is only part of the story behind Navarre Beach and Gulf Islands National Seashore. It’s a naturally luxurious landmark, one of only ten beaches in the nation protected as a National Seashore. Fish from the coast’s longest pier. Dive into a marine park. Experience the 360-degree beauty of a barrier island.

What makes this Condo unique

We purchased this condo in December 2016. The moment we walked in, we knew this was "The Place" we had been looking for. It is fully furnished, decorated with coastal chic inspired decor, you will feel like you are staying in a designer resort. With amenities galore, you will want for nothing while staying at our condo. And there is something for everyone - walking, biking, swimming, tanning, beach time, paddleboarding, fishing, kayaking, surfing, sailing, board games, and just good old fashioned rest and relaxation on the balcony with a cold one! Navarre Beach make this your perfect vacation! We look forward to helping make your vacation a reality at Secret Splendor.

Secret Splendor is so beautiful and comfortable, from the minute we walked in we were able to put our stress aside and spend a few days simply relaxing. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you could need, the beds and couches were all very comfortable, and the view is breathtaking. We slept with the door open so we could enjoy the sound of the surf all night long. I was able to enjoy sunrise each morning from the balcony which was such a treat. We enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub and walked for miles on the gorgeous beach. This condo allowed us to fully enjoy our little Winter getaway.

The unit and all of its appointments were FIRST CLASS in everyway!!! Being on the 4th floor was perfect.......low enough to have a wonderful view of the sugar-sand beach and high enough for a gorgeous vista! I look forward to returning soon!!!

Navarre beckons with 12 miles of pristine white shoreline. Nestled between Gulf Islands National Seashore and Navarre Beach County Park, this beach community offers solitude and simplicity. Its pristine beaches are named among the best in the nation year after year, and visitors compare crossing Navarre Bridge to transcending paradise time and time again. And so, relaxation is the main attraction here. Visitors can sun on the beach, swim in emerald waters, enjoy a picnic in the park or pedal along a scenic bike path. Nearby you will find The Navarre Beach Marine Science Station, a marine station located at the Navarre Beach Park, now offering small private tours for up to 12 people! Enjoy a 60 minute up close and personal sneak peak at the facility. Just across the bridge is The Panhandle Butterfly House is an educational and interactive exhibit.
